Fixed the issues on AL interpreter. The issues were: 1. FUNC comptype representation 2. IterE with indexed ListN |
This PR cleans up and tightens SpecTec IL scoping and validation and revamps the frontend elaborator accordingly.
The relevant tweaks to the IL are as follows (see also the diff on il/ast.ml):
(x1:t1,...,xN:tN)now bind just variables, not expressions. Furthermore, these variables are properly locally scoped. That implies that they no longer show up in outer binder lists. They scope over field types to the right as expected.syntax t = C(a : t, b : u(a)) -- if $p(a, b), the variablesaandbscope over the premise.syntax t = C(a : t, b : u(a)) {c : v(b)} -- if $f(a, b) = c.iandjine^(i<n){j <- k}are now properly locally scoped (this was a bit ambiguous before). That implies that they also no longer show up in outer binder lists.The net effect of these changes is that all scoping now is much more standard and there no longer is any duplication between "binders" and parameters. As a concrete example, this e.g. is how the elaboration of the type
namesimplifies:There are only very few cases left where quantifiers on variants actually still show up (for example, the
SUBNORMconstructor for floats). Note that quantifiers remain heavily used for function definitions and their argument patterns.Currently there still is a test failure on the AL interpreter.
